Breakin' Mozart - classical music meets breakdance
Creating an infinite wealth of ingenious masterpieces in such a short space of time - with exceptional geniuses like Mozart, one likes to wonder what kind of artist he would be if he were alive today and among us. Mozart would probably be a rather eccentric and "quirky" contemporary, who was fast-paced and brimming with creative energy. The director, conductor and music producer Christoph Hagel has followed precisely this appealing mind game and created one of the most successful crossover projects of recent years.
He combines Mozart and his music with breakdance, techno beats and hip-hop in a highly entertaining way. Classical melodies become the basis for an energetic mix of styles and an artistic show with an enormous entertainment factor. Famous arias sung live, such as the Queen of the Night from "The Magic Flute", are transformed into cool hip-hop, to which the award-winning break dancers of the "DDC - Dancefloor Destruction Crew" demonstrate their choreographic skills. "You can experience an amazingly harmonious intertwining of cultures, sounds and movements," wrote the Berliner Zeitung.
